Looking for advice on a camera for nature photography under $600. (lemm.ee)

I’m totally new to photography and want to get my first camera. I’ll mainly be using it for nature photography while hiking and traveling.

My only focus is on photos of the highest possible quality.

My budget is around $600, and I’ll also need essential accessories, but don't know what I'd need, like a lens?

Not open to refurbished, as I'm buying in Vietnam.

EOS Rebel T7/2000D

Not sure if this is still useful (it might be for future visitors), but anyway... I think the R50 is a step above the 2000D. If you want to stay near the stated budget, you're looking at the R100 in the R range. But even with the kit lens that's going to stretch that budget. Yes, you'll need a lens, and ideally something like a lens hood, maybe a protective filter, it adds up.
